What guests say about Café Restaurant Toranj

Reviews are very positive for Café Restaurant Toranj, with tasty, well-presented food often described as fresh, aromatic, and original. The atmosphere also stands out: warm decor, a cozy vibe, and generally very kind, attentive service.

Great ..bit pricy but worth it as the dishes are exquisite and there’s a knowledgeable chef preparing the dishes.We went with people who are Persian and understand that only detailed ingredients can accomplish such great tasty delights.I was full and still ate..that good!

We came from Toronto and randomly found this restaurant, and I can confidently say there’s no Iranian restaurant in Toronto like this even with all the amazing Persian restaurants there. Absolutely incredible food and experience!

Absolutely loved this place. Went in on a Saturday around 1pm and had a vegetarian feast in a "to be shared" combo. Sublime! Service was also very warm and excellent. I felt good, zen just being in there. Fabulous! Check them out - so worth the trip!

A nice, cozy Persian café with warm atmosphere. The aroma of the food was super enticing, but I only got a lovely Persian cookie with tea this time. 😋The servers were very attentive and kind, and the herbal tea selection was quite impressive.

I do love the foods here, mostly Albaloo polo and Ghanbar polo become my favorite meals. If you are from Shiraz, you will like them here very much, they have a list of foods from Shiraz ❤️

There are lots of gluten free options. The server is kind and attentive. The seats are cozy and comfy. The food was really wonderful. Everything is delicious, but the fesenjan was out of this world good, and the pistachio and almond latte is definitely worth a try. What a cozy lovely delight of a place.

We arrived at a time when the place was packed! Our entire family was hungry and tired. The nice lady with silver hair highlights creatively told us to take a seat on the sofa and order our food, while some tables become free. The food here looks very elegant. Nice traditional plates. Very cozy ambiance. They transformed us from a tired and hungry bunch into a happy and satisfied family. Hospitality business is about creating memories for people, and that's what Cafe Toranje proved to be good at. I met the owner Mr. Alirza. Lovely gentleman. Thanks Make it a mission to discover all their plates, one at a time.

Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience with the service. Although the ambiance was beautiful and pleasant, the service quality was far below expectations. Our order took over an hour to arrive. Even a simple cup of tea for my friend took more than an hour. When it was time to pay, the lady at the cashier responded was not friendly at all. It’s really disappointing because the place has such a nice atmosphere, but the poor service ruined our experience.
